Description

These bite-sized tater tot cheeseburgers combine crispy tater tots with juicy cheeseburger patties for a fun and delicious appetizer or snack. Perfect for parties, game days, or as a family-friendly treat!

Ingredients

Units Scale

For the tater tot buns:

  • 48 frozen tater tots (about 2 cups)
  • Non-stick cooking spray

For the burger patties:

  • 1/2 lb (225 g) ground beef
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder

For assembly:

  • 6 slices cheddar cheese, cut into small squares
  • 12 mini dill pickle slices
  • 2 tbsp ketchup (optional)
  • 2 tbsp mustard (optional)
  • Toothpicks for serving

Instructions

1. Prepare the tater tot buns:

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
  • Arrange the tater tots in pairs on the baking sheet. Gently press each pair together using the back of a spoon to form a flat “bun” shape.
  • Spray lightly with non-stick cooking spray and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until golden and crispy. Flip halfway through for even crispiness.

2. Make the burger patties:

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently until just combined.
  • Divide the mixture into 12 small patties, about the size of the tater tot buns.
  • Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for 2–3 minutes per side, or until fully cooked.

3. Melt the cheese:

  • During the last minute of cooking, place a square of cheddar cheese on each patty and let it melt.

4. Assemble the mini cheeseburgers:

  • Place one tater tot bun on a serving plate. Add a burger patty with melted cheese on top, followed by a pickle slice, and a small dollop of ketchup or mustard if desired. Top with another tater tot bun.
  • Secure each mini burger with a toothpick.

5. Serve:

  • Serve warm as an appetizer or snack.

Notes

  • For a variation, add mini tomato slices or shredded lettuce.
  • Use turkey or veggie ground meat for a lighter option.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat in the oven to maintain crispiness.
